How many electrons are in the outermost principal energy level of an atom of carbon in the ground state

Chemistry
1 answer:
Agata [3.3K]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

four electrons

Explanation:

Let us attempt to write the electronic configuration of carbon in the ground state. This electronic configuration will now be;

C- 1s2 2s2 2p2

The outermost principal energy level of carbon is the n=2 level which houses the 2s2 and 2p2, making a total of four electrons in the outermost principal energy level of an atom of carbon in the ground state.

How many grams of hydrogen are needed to produce 1.80 g of water according to this equation? 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O
s344n2d4d5 [400]
Answer is c

Work out the moles of 2H2O: 1.80/ (16+1+1) = 0.1
The moles of 2H2 are the same (0.1)
The Mr of H2 is 2

So the mass needed to produce 1.80g of water is
0.1 x 2 = 0.2

Consider the balanced equation. 2HCl + Mg MgCl2 + H2 If 40.0 g of HCl react with an excess of magnesium metal, what is the theor
Serga [27]

Answer:

Theoretical yield of hydrogen is 1.11 g

Explanation:

Balanced equation, Mg+2HCl\rightarrow MgCl_{2}+H_{2}

As Mg remain present in excess therefore HCl is the limiting reagent.

According to balanced equation, 2 moles of HCl produce 1 mol of H_{2}.

Molar mass of HCl = 36.46 g/mol

So, 40.0 g of HCl = \frac{40.0}{36.46}moles of HCl = 1.10 moles of HCl

Hence, theoretically, number of moles of H_{2} are produced from 1.10 moles of HCl = (\frac{1}{2}\times 1.10)moles=0.550moles

Molar mass of H_{2} = 2.016 g/mol

So, theoretical yield of H_{2} = (0.550\times 2.016)g=1.11g

Number of H in 3(NH4)2Cro4
zlopas [31]

The number of H atoms in 3(NH₄)₂CrO₄ = 24

<h3>Further explanation  </h3>

The empirical formula is the smallest comparison of atoms of compound forming elements.  

A molecular formula is a formula that shows the number of atomic elements that make up a compound.  

(empirical formula) n = molecular formula  

Subscripts in the chemical formula indicate the number of atoms

The compound of 3(NH₄)₂CrO₄ ( 3 molecules of (NH₄)₂CrO₄ ) :

Number of H :

\tt 4\times 2(subscript)\times 3(coefficient,number~of~molecules)=24~atoms
